well its actually not a joke and im serious about this. i only found out i was getting it a couple days ago but here are some of the things i know about it
colour-portofino blue
pickin it up from somewhere in UK
not sure about extras
well for hearing about noble, as a teen motorhead, having plenty of time on my hands left me with time to bum around exploring different cars on the internet and such. and i ended up coming across the m12 one day and i fell in love with it and still am.

about meeting with another owner, i may be able to but i am only 16 after all so not sure if my parents will allow me to but who knows, maybe they will.anything else u wanna know?

How are you getting round the type approval issues? As it stands you won't be able to drive it so what is the point in having it?

When was your order placed? When are you to receive the car? What's your order number?

Let's look at the facts here:
1) You're only 16 so it doesn't matter how rich your parents are, they would not buy you a car if you were not old enough to drive it. It's like going to the best restaurant in town when you’re not even hungry!
2) No insurance company worldwide would insure anyone under 21 on a car of this nature except maybe a country that adopts an 'innocent until proven guilty' scheme. But America is not one of these countries.
3) 90% of American cars are automatic and so you cannot have had any practice driving a manual given that your 16 and any car you did drive would be automatic.

There goes that flying pig again…

Whatever. I personally know of two teens given a new M3 and 911 for their 18th. He wrote off the first 911, although it was quickly replaced. Someone on here posted before of some kid getting a Diablo too. So what? It happens, just forget about it.

I know I'll have something these spoilt kids won't ever have; the personal satisfaction of achieving my own goals in life. It felt great when I bought my first house all on my own. It is also going to feel amazing when I buy my first supercar on my own too.

Most of the USA allows people to start learning to drive at 15, and have a full license by 16, so that bit is possible at least (I may be out of date here, but I think that's still right). Why? Because you can't do squat in the US without a car!

You can get insurance on anything if you have enough money to spend. One way is to self-insure, which usually requires you to post a large (and I mean large, like several hundred thousand dollars) bond which would be used in the event of a payout being needed.

You're right about the autos, though, and maybe a GTO isn't the best car to learn a stick shift in
